How does antivirus software work?
One popular technique that antivirus software uses to detect viruses is to look for a virus signature, or virus definition. A virus signature is the software code of a particular computer virus. The antivirus program compares its database of known virus signatures with the files on a digital device and on removable media. Antivirus software companies are constantly searching for and updating their database of known signatures. It is important to make sure your antivirus program is on a regular update schedule. Once the virus is identified the antivirus software attempts to remove the virus. If the software cannot remove the virus it will send the file to an isolated area on the hard drive called a quarantine. Quarantined files will remain on your computer until you delete or restore them.
